# App.net

> App.net (ADN) was a paid, ad-free, developer-first real-time social networking and microblogging platform (2012–2017). The App.net Stream API exposed posts, users, follows, channels, private messages, files, filters, and a real-time streaming surface over OAuth 2.0. The service shut down 2017-03-14; its API documentation and SDKs remain preserved on the appdotnet GitHub organization. This file was generated by the API Evangelist enrichment pipeline from the preserved documentation.
